Casper College President Dr. Walter Nolte was first to speak and began on an emotional note.

I can say without a doubt that this is the worst day of my career... We are an institution about people.

Casper Police Chief Chris Walsh made it clear that this is an early stage of the investigation, so a lot of details cannot be made public.

In total, we have three people who are deceased. One of those deceaced is who we believe was committing all the violence. What we can find is that the individual that committed the violent acts was not a student of the college, but that there was a known relationship between all three of them... This is a day you hope never comes into your community.
